I do not agree, William.

You need some kind of mission statement, however broad, to set the tone
and purpose of your organization.

I would not join an organization unless I knew its purpose.

You will not be able to get NC members and ICANN board members to accept
a new constituency without some definition of what that constituency is
and what its mission is.

A constituency has no need for a "mission statement" as its mission will
vary depending on the will of the members, which may change even week to
week.  Any such statements as mandatory membership requirements would
only serve to stifle the constituency.
